We love the mighty Canberra Raiders
South Sydney could have to wait a bit longer to get Canberra Raiders star Jack Wighton into the cardinal and myrtle.
Wighton will come under the scrutiny of the NRL match review committee due to allegations of biting.
Newcastle five-eighth Tyson Gamble levelled the accusation at Wighton in the second-half of the epic elimination final, which the Knights on 30-28 in extra-time.
Newcastle have knocked Canberra out of the NRL finals with a nail-biting 30-28 extra time win after Raiders star Jack Wighton avoided a send-off for an alleged bite on Tyson Gamble.
Captain Kalyn Ponga kicked an 89th minute penalty which ensured the Knights will head to Auckland to face the Warriors next Saturday after securing a helter skelter victory in their first home final since 2006.
They will cross the ditch severely battered and bruised with concerns over the fitness of first-choice halves pairing Jackson Hastings and Gamble, both of whom failed to finish the elimination final.
But the biggest talking point from Sunday's...
The Knights have won 10 games in a row and are into the second week of finals for the first time since 2013 after beating the Raiders in extra time.
Newcastle superstar Kalyn Ponga stood tall with the game on the line and booted the winning penalty goal with just one minute left in the game.
They'll now face the Warriors in New Zealand next Saturday for a spot in the preliminary finals.
